Milwaukee Irish Band 4

Voted 2015 Celtic band of the year by Wisconsin Area Music Industry, this Milwaukee Irish Band has garnered a reputation for being an interactive, get-off-your-chair act. The band’s travel circuit around the Midwest continues to grow along with their reputation for being a highly respected and professional level group.

National programs such as Good Morning Ireland, Blarney on the Air, and Paddyrock internet radio have featured this Milwaukee Irish Band Celtic Radio Music Network rates them as five out of five stars. Their ability to adapt Celtic music to an American rock audience, and include unexpected rock favorites into their set, makes them the perfect eclectic choice in today’s watered down and predictable Celtic scene.

Milwaukee Irish Band release

This Milwaukee Irish Band latest release is their strongest effort to date and showcases their vibrant tongue-in-cheek humor along with musical chops and four-part vocal harmonies. Original tunes, and their lyrics, serve as a sort of confessional—perfect for an Irish band. See “Fireflies” and “One Can Never Be Overly Prepared” for these episodes. Traditional songs, such as “Paddy Works on the Railway”, are given a new coat of rollicking musical paint. Though lyrically wistful at times, the band wastes no time to make a live show truly pop with energy.

Milwaukee Irish Band partnership

Their partnership with a national label features a holiday record: A Kick Ass Celtic Christmas. This collection of irreverent originals, classic favorites, and traditional tunes features this Milwaukee Irish Band penned “Dear Santa (I Can Explain)” which was selected for both the Daybreak Entertainment and Fine Gold Productions compilations and is in rotation for seasonal nationally syndicated morning show air play. USA Today rated the recording as one of the most stellar and original holiday releases they have ever reviewed.

Being a strong part of the Irish and non-Irish musical community throughout the Midwest, this Milwaukee Irish Band has appeared regularly at Milwaukee’s Irish Fest, The Irish Cultural and Heritage Center in Milwaukee, Manhattan, IL Irish Fest, Will County, IL Celtic Fest, Bastille Days in Milwaukee, City of Indianapolis events, Harley-Davidson festivals, River Rhythms in Milwaukee, countless St. Patrick’s parades and activities, Bradley Center events, and at far too many Irish pubs and non-Irish locales around the Midwest to mention.

This Milwaukee Irish Band has shared the stage with Gaelic Storm, Flogging Molly, Enter the Haggis, The Prodigals, Barra MacNeils, Seven Nations, The Bridies, Luka Bloom and more. Members of this Milwaukee Irish Band are also involved with community and social outfits such as the Wisconsin Area Music Industry and the Shamrock Club of Wisconsin—Milwaukee Chapter.

They celebrate Celtic musical heritage and their own American upbringings in both the live setting and on record. This Milwaukee Irish Band provides a lively musical feast for those who enjoy a bit of nostalgia, a dose of modernism, and a full pint of fun and good will.

"Kick Ass Celtic Christmas" is a high powered, rocking Christmas album that leaves us speechless with a smile! 5 stars from Celtic Radio!"
